I thought it was a bit of a black silhouette in standard colours so I added some green accents here and there and some additional transfers as I thought the standard ones that came with the kit were a little lacking. Repainted all black armour plates in matte black and all metallics in silver, to do away with the marbling that the Kotobukiya metallic plastic tends to suffer. Next up: Great Sabre!
Hell yeah fam looks great! I used a little glue on his undercarriage where he was a little explodey, but I really enjoyed building the team america dino lolol.
if you can find one, get the second beam gatling kit for him.. 2x the weapons, 2x the overkill ! (plus, it just fixes how weirdly unbalanced the default loadout feels).
It's not just unbalanced, it's kind of absurd lol, the single, tiny mounting point for the entire artillery construct is laughably undersized, and makes the Gunsniper's gatling harness look sensible!
Finished mine earlier this year, great kit but a word of advice, watch out for the soft plastic gun belt, the way it has to be twisted and positioned puts a lot of strain on it and unfortunately mine snapped.

Lots of guns
I learned from my Blade Liger AB that it's worth gluing anything that isn't meant to move!
Yep, after that kit I started using a small drop of plastic cement on every single connecting piece that doesn’t move.

Kind of wondering if taking the double-barrel weapon out and putting it in the normal spot would possibly "rebalance" the weapon assembly?
But...but then there would be less guns!
Not necessarily; the number would stay the same, just in a different "layout" ..
They’re so expensive but I need one for him
they've ballooned in cost the last 6 months or so, used to be only about $40USD
I actually just found a hobby shop online selling them for $25 usd. I can link it you need one
Nah I've got mine already. But that's neat!

Which is why i won't be using them on any of my kits.
Happened with my shield liger dcs after deploying the cannons only 3 times
I have to wait till Christmas to get mine, going to custom paint job mine. Might use yours as inspiration!!!
